Hi everyone,

More treats in store for today. In our second week featuring Sunday Poets, we have four new poems to enjoy. My thanks to Linda Boyden, Brenda A. Harris, Cory Corrado, and Cathy Ballou Mealey for sharing their work today.

Reminder: When you e-mail a poem for me to post on an upcoming Sunday Poets, don’t forget to include links to blogs, websites, or other points of interest that you want me to include below your poem. Friday is the cutoff for poems to be posted each Sunday. Otherwise, I’ll hang onto your poem and include it the following Sunday.

HOMEWORK
by Linda Boyden

My homework ate my dog;
was not a pretty sight.
To make it worse,
I’m double-cursed:
now my homework bites!

Monday’s child will win the race.
Tuesday’s child soars into space.
Wednesday’s child may steal the show.
Thursday’s child helps learners grow.
Friday’s child makes sick ones well.
Saturday’s child writes tales to tell.
The child who is born on the seventh day defines success in her own way!
